I'm not talking about the 3 semester JUCO rule. I'm talking about the fact that Illinois found out he was a non-qualifier and continued to let him stay on the team. That's a NCAA rule. That would be like us getting Sawyer in, finding out this summer that he actually didn't qualify and we let him play this fall anyway.

Gotcha.

For all the rumors about him not being allowed to play at SC, all the experts are including him in all their signing day stuff. If he is not going to be allowed to play by the SEC why are they even including him in all that stuff?

Because they are slow, and right now is a busy time for them. He's still listed as a commitment to us on all the sites..

they're probably leaving him on our commit list until the decision, including all appeals, is final.

Former Shrine Bowler WR Casey Gladney (6-2 185) of Copiah-Lincoln JC, MS did not get strong interest from USC during his senior season at Columbia High, but now the Gamecocks are taking a closer look and may come thru with an offer in the near future. Gladney had a sensational senior season with the Caps in 2011 catching 70 passes for 1300 yards and 19 touchdowns. And he averaged 36 yards per punt return. He had offers from Alabama, Texas Tech, Tennessee, Cincinnati and Kentucky. Gladney committed to Alabama in June of 2011 but eventually signed with Texas Tech and Tommy Tuberville. He did not qualify and that led him to junior college where this season he caught 60 passes with 8 going for touchdowns. He averaged 108 receiving yards per game. Gladney later switched his pledge to Cincinnati when Tuberville went there. The Bearcats remain his favorite but he will take an official visit to Cal January 31st. He also talked with USC recruiter GA Mangus earlier this week and he’s expecting Mangus to come down for a visit. “I’m just waiting on him to contact me and waiting on that offer,” Gladney said. “He said they are looking at my tape. He said with a junior college player they’ve got to get everything cleared and he said he’d get back to me.” And Gladney is hoping for that offer. “I’m very interested in possibly coming back to Columbia. Cincinnati is still my favorite. I’m just waiting to see how everything else goes. But an offer would put USC right up there with Cincinnati.” Gladney said he’s on track to graduate in May and he has three years to play two.

USC has had some contact recently with WR Casey Gladney, the former Shrine Bowler from Columbia High now attending East Mississippi JC. Gladney has been talking with Gamecock recruiter GA Mangus and said Wednesday night he’s trying to set up an official visit with the Gamecocks for this coming weekend and is waiting on Mangus to get back to him. Gladney had previously scheduled a visit to Cal for this weekend. He has been committed to Cincinnati but would likely flip to USC with an offer.

OL Christian Taylor of White Knoll has flipped his commitment from SC State to Georgia Southern according to his coach Dean Howell. Taylor had committed to the Bulldogs in November. Taylor played in the Touchstone Energy North-South Game in December.

LB Richard Yeargin III of Hollywood, FL decommitted from Notre Dame Friday and his father said Saturday afternoon he now favors Clemson. Richard Yeargin Jr. said his son has not yet committed to the Tigers but is looking hard at them after having an in home visit earlier this week from Dabo Swinney and Brent Venables. “As of now we’ve removed ourselves from the Notre Dame offer,” Yeargin Jr. said. “Clemson is the direction we are headed in but we haven’t confirmed anything yet. They came in and told us all about the program and had a chance to meet and greet with the family. At this time they would be the first choice on top of some other schools he would take a second chance at since he’s opened up again.” Yeargin Jr. did not identify any other schools his son might consider. Clemson and Notre Dame are the two official visits he’s taken thus far. “Right now he’s going to have a week where he’s a free agent and just gather his thoughts moving forward. We know it’s a blessing to be recruited and we don’t take that for granted.” Yeargin III committed to Notre Dame in August but also kept an interest in Clemson. He has family in the Upstate so he’s visited that part of the start often. “We have no ill will against them (Notre Dame),” Yeargin Jr. said. “We’re just trying to do what’s best for him. He has to be happy on the field, off the field and with his teammates.” Yeargin Jr. said they won’t take any more visits but may entertain another coach or two this week. This season Yeargin III had 75 tackles and 15 sacks.

Two days after decommitting from Notre Dame, LB Richard Yeargin III of Fort Lauderdale still favors Clemson but has not yet finalized a decision according to his brother. “Clemson is his top school as of now, he just hasn’t confirmed anything,” Yeargin’s brother Richard Yeargin Jr. said Monday night. “We’re just taking a second glance and making sure we’re doing this for all the right reasons. He hasn’t made up his mind. I think I know where he wants to go. He’s weighing heavy on Clemson.” Clemson defensive coordinator Brent Venables visited with Yeargin III Monday and Clemson will be sending scholarship papers this week. Some other schools have checked in on Yeargin III but “we don’t want to waste any coaches’ time,” Yeargin Jr. said. Yeargin III will notify his school of choice a couple of days before Signing Day and might go public with the decision then his brother said.

LB Richard Yeargin III of Fort Lauderdale should have his decision firmed up by Monday or Tuesday at the latest his brother said Wednesday. “I think the decision is made,” Richard Yeargin Jr. said. Notre Dame and Texas have had recent contact and Yeargin Jr. said the Irish, to whom his brother once was committed, may try to get in for a final visit. He said he isn’t sure how strong the Texas interest. Yeargin III will not take a visit anywhere this weekend according to his brother. Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney was in last week and recruiter Brent Venables was in on Monday.

DE Andrew Williams of McDonough, GA will announce on National Signing Day at 9:45 AM. Georgia coach Mark Richt is making an in home visit with Williams Wednesday and he might take an official visit to Athens this weekend. Auburn coach Gus Malzahn is due in on Thursday. Clemson is the other school in the mix. Williams has already visited Auburn and Clemson.
